Chapter 270: Acquiring The Mid-Level Sky Grade Alchemist Token
"Yes! How is he able to concoct the pill!?" Elder Garner also stood up as he shouted, even his eyes were narrowed into two slits.
"There's no way..." Elder Theren muttered with disbelief but then uttered, "Unless his soul force is of different quality and intensity..."
When Elder Theren said that, everyone immediately understood. If that was the case, then it meant that a genius in alchemy had appeared in their Thousand Pill Association!
Elder Seylas sat back down, his back drenched with a bit of sweat. The reason for his shock was something else entirely but it seemed like no one noticed it, including Tina Roxley.
"Congratulations! Mister Scythe!" Elder Garner laughed in an uproarious tone. It was as if he found a treasure.
"Are you interested in becoming a member of the Thousand Pill Association?" Elder Theren asked, his eyes emitting gentleness.
"I'm not interested..." Davis replied. 1
"Oh..." Elder Theren uttered with a disappointed expression on his face, but he still said, "You can consider it slowly, no haste..."
"No haste indeed! Talents like you are always welcome!" Elder Garner smiled as he said.
After that, the others present also congratulated him, including Elder Seylas and Tina Roxley.
Just as Davis was receiving his new alchemist robe and token plate, Elder Seylas and Tina Roxley spoke with each other through Soul Transmission.
Tina's heart pounded as she asked, "Are you really saying the truth!?"
"I'm telling you! He is no more than 20 years old! He's too young to be even considered as a Soul Forging Cultivator!" Elder Seylas couldn't even believe his probe but couldn't just cross out the facts either.
Tina's body trembled as she widened her eyes, 'Could it really be him?'
Her heart suddenly turned confused.
She calmed herself down and said, "Keep your words and do not leak his identity under any circumstances. Got it?"
"I want no part of this... If I had knew this before, I would've personally invited him to join Thousand Pill Association, even recommending him to join the Thousand Pill Palace, but he just easily rejected a few moments ago."
"He is probably a monster with big family background. Likely, he should be from one of the larger territories, roaming out for tempering." Elder Seylas said with a little bit of fear in his heart.
Tina Roxley also nodded her head, feeling that it might be the case.
Elder Seylas then remembered, "Don't forget about the pill and the matter of owing you can be considered over. Damn, you almost got me involved in something that's out of my bounds."
"I know. You'll receive it in a month..." Tina replied, not at all bothered by his blame. In truth, she also felt guilty for involving Elder Seylas but thought that without him, she never would've found that man.
Davis donned the new purple-colored alchemist robe which had 5 bright stars etched on it.
He was given a token plate which read [Mid-Level Sky Grade Alchemist] and in the rear, it read, [Thousand Pills Association].
Davis also kept the Crude-Tier Mid-Level Sky Grade Pills in his spatial ring as he paid for the ingredients. Although the pill was of a lower quality, at crude-tier. nobody said anything since he had crossed levels to make the pills.
But at this time, Davis froze.
"I just felt a Soul Sense probe you a few seconds ago..." Fallen Heaven said.
His heart turned cold as he asked, "Who?"
"I don't know... If I did something, that person would've probably found my presence as well but not exactly since the other person would only feel that there is something strange in your Soul Sea."
Davis's eyes narrowed but he answered, "You did good, don't reveal yourself at any circumstances."
But he then asked, "Why didn't you inform me at that moment..."
"That person would have noticed that you noticed something, besides you were completely focused on concocting pills. I didn't want to disturb you..."
Davis sighed on hearing its response. He knew that it wouldn't harm him because their souls were intricately linked.
If he dies, there is a possibility that Fallen Heaven might die too. So he could say that their relationship was entirely cooperative and relaxed.
"Alright, next time, inform me if those kinds of things happen..."
"Okay..." Fallen Heaven replied and went silent.
In truth, even if Fallen Heaven had probed outside, Elder Seylas and even the others would discover that something had probed them. 1
But they wouldn't be able to tell from where it came from.
In this aspect, Fallen Heaven's experience as a soul form being can be treated as almost nil.
Its strength was intricately linked with Davis's soul, and that's why its power depends on his Soul Forging Cultivation.
But their control couldn't be said to be at the same level.
Right now, Davis could control its powers to fight against Low-Level Elder Soul Cultivators and elude the senses of Mid-Level Elder Soul Stage Cultivators.
While using Fallen Heaven might take his power to the next level, it would never take action with a chance of getting discovered prohibiting it, unless Davis's life was really in danger.
After all, their souls were almost fused as one in any case.
Davis's gaze eventually fell on Tina Roxley who was approaching him with a calm expression on her face.
Naturally, this woman was on the top of the list in who would want to probe his identity, but he could tell that her Soul Forging Cultivation was only at Low-Level Young Soul Stage.
'There's no way it could be her, right? I'm overthinking again...' Davis brushed off her presence and looked at other people as he noted every single one of them as he remembered their faces.
He knew that the elders here were capable of probing him, and he didn't think they would dare to do that since it would be considered rude.
These were all old fogeys, wouldn't they want their face; reputation to stay intact?
Davis shook his head, but didn't think that the Soul Sense could have only come from here, he thought it might be from the outside or maybe even from the Grand Elder he had heard about during the exam.
Whatever the intent may be, he didn't like being probed anonymously like this, but to think of it, he had also done this to many people but it was mostly done for his protection and gathering information with no hostile intent behind his prying.
The most repulsing prying he had done was spy on Young Master Jackson Lars, but that situation was created by Jackson himself and not Davis since the latter only wanted to offend the former for a mission.
